Freya like the three cars before it, is a Cruiser Class vehicle. Freya is also the team's first four seated vehicle. Freya was manufactured during the COVID-19 pandemic and was one of a thinned field to compete in the American Solar Challenge 2021. Despite its large footprint, its maneuverability won it first place in the Formula Sun Grand Prix. Similar to its predecessor, Freya included an interchangeable battery configuration, a fact that would become important after a battery fire during the American Solar Challenge 2021. This design allowed it to continue the race, where it placed second just behind Team Sunergy from Appalachian State University.
